The total volume of the electric vehicle segment (imports of new and used vehicles and domestic resales) amounted to 9,700 in July 2025, which is 41.1% more than in July 2024 and 9.8% more than in June this year, according to the Automotive Market Research Institute.
“This is a historic record for our market, and there are three main drivers: rising fuel prices at gas stations, a general trend of growing interest in electric vehicles (which consists of improving their characteristics and reducing market prices), as well as the approaching customs clearance from VAT, which is scheduled for January 1, 2026,” the statement on the website says.
New electric cars accounted for 16% of this volume (1,552 units), while in July 2024 the share was 14.3%. At the same time, their sales increased by 58%.
“This is a new record for newly registered electric vehicles,” experts say.
Imports of used electric cars in July increased by 38% compared to July 2024, amounting to 5,154 units, and domestic resales increased by 38.8% to 3,010 units.
According to the Institute, compared to June this year, imports of new electric vehicles increased by 11.2%, used ones by 9.7%, and domestic resales by 9.4%.
Experts also analyzed the total fleet of electric transport in Ukraine (excluding industrial electric cars, trolleybuses, and rail vehicles): as of the end of July, it amounted to 178 thousand units, of which the largest number were passenger cars — 173.2 thousand, electric trucks — 3.7 thousand, several electric buses (8 units), and nearly 1,100 motorcycles.
“It is interesting that Tesla makes up the largest share of our electric vehicle fleet (19.9%), although Nissan had been the leader since the beginning of the ‘electrification’ process until recently, with a share of 19.4%. Volkswagen is third on the list with a share of 12.8%,” experts note.
